It can delay the time for medicine or the right treatment to get to "said" patient. Potentially being a life threatening situation/ Long term issue. Due to human error, the patient wouldn't improve and possibly get worse, and the doctor might not notice till next meeting.

(That's in general what I thought the answer could be. Also heh, you from health science class as well?)

Answer: Failing to document treatment could lead to over-medication or other serious problems for the patient.

Explanation:

I’ll use an example from the work of a group home, caring for individuals with intellectual disabilities and various health conditions (such as potentially having seizures). If medications aren’t given as prescribed and when prescribed— and documented that they’ve been given —it could lead to an individual getting a double dose of a med (if another staff member thinks the dose was missed). Or it could mean meds doses do indeed get missed, which could put an individual at risk for a seizure or other serious medical reaction.
